Description (last modified by Antoine Martin)

  • to try to ensure that we clean everything up on shutdown
  • to give client applications a chance to shutdown cleanly rather than just seeing that the X11 display is gone and crashing

Mostly done in r16214.

Still TODO (optional): allow a little bit more time for the client processes to cleanup and terminate before we yank the X11 server. (and make it configurable via env var)

We can't sleep in the UI thread, which is where the cleanup code runs...
So r16215 busy waits for up to XPRA_TERMINATE_DELAY milliseconds (defaults to 1000)
Minor fix in r16216, code improvement in r16217.

This will do for now.
